Strategic Plan for Cardiovascular Health in Portugal - Portuguese Society of Cardiology (PESCP-SPC) - Part II.

The Strategic Plan for Cardiovascular Health in Portugal is an initiative of the Portuguese Society of Cardiology, developed together with the European Society of Cardiology to create a European Cardiovascular Health Plan, an initiative which has now been endorsed by the Council of the European Union. Building upon its conceptual framework, the Portuguese Society of Cardiology moved to the implementation phase by establishing Working Groups composed of experts in priority areas. Guided by strategic pillars, these groups formulated proposals for action encompassing health promotion, primary prevention and health determinants, screening and early diagnosis, secondary prevention, as well as rehabilitation and quality of life promotion. This document outlines the results and messages from this project.
